Rambis played for Camden High which no longer exists...

I was relaying what the tv announcers stated...

I watched both games. Dana Altman, Oregon's HC, was at the Mitty's boys game in pursuit of A. Gordon, too. Both Gordon boys are solid student atheletes. Drew attended UCLA, remember? He told me that he considered Cal. Drew played on the Oakland Soldiers with my nephew. GO BEARS!

There was also Dennis Awtrey (Blackford, Santa Clara) and longtime NBA player but maybe getting back beyond what you'd call modern (e. g., late '60s). As a high schooler, Ralph Ogden of Lincoln was pretty dominant but surpassed by brother Bud at SC and in the NBA. They were also from the '60s.

has ADD, which makes his decent grades an accomplishment. Monty has been very complimentary of Drew in public, and defended his decision to transfer from UCLA. The Gordons, at least from Monty's perspective are not 1 and done guys. That doesn't mean A. Gordon is interested in Cal.

though I think of Cal's guards as fairly athletic. Where the athleticism seems lacking to me is up front. Yes, Solo and Kravish have potential once they put on some good weight (whenever that is). But Cal needs a good power big or two now, and some depth.

Regarding recruiting, Bird probably is a Cal lien, but there are no guarantees. And Cal does not players like Bird.

A case could be made that basketball's modern era dates from the 3 point shot which has dramatically changed the game and has only been around since the 1980s. Some of us, of course, were already old when that came to pass.
